I have excellent results with the paint remover contained in aerosol cans. It is methylene chloride in spray on form. The spray nozzle supplies a concentrated stream that is pretty easy to control. I generally degrease the parts first, apply the remover, allow a generous wait time for reaction, then wash the parts off with a water soluable parts wash. I’ve been doing racing gear case repairs that require this treatment for many years with excellent results. You could use the aerosol gasket remover, but the paint remover is the same stuff, and considerably less expensive. A final cleanup with acetone or toluene before reassembly is essential. In addition, the primer/accelerant is an aid in encouraging a good bond between the commonly aluminum parts. R.T.
